Nuevo Laredo is a prescription Mecca for many in the Southwest. That's what brought Marvin Bryan here. A feisty 73-year-old long-distance trucker and former reading teacher from Mesa, Ariz., he had heard about Nuevo Laredo's prescription-drug bonanza from his trucker pals. Clutching a plastic bag, he is pleased with his purchases, which include Augmentin, Proscar and that modern elixir, Viagra. Nearby, Bill Gibson picks up Tagamet, the stomach medication, for a mere $7.50--far less than the $62 he says he would pay back in Oklahoma City, Okla., "even though it's made...

When Gingrich resigned as House Speaker a year ago, the only thing that seemed certain was that the world had not heard the last of the heat-seeking former backbencher who toppled the Capitol in 1994. But these days when he makes the papers, it is mostly with the details of his messy divorce from wife Marianne (last week's testimony: his affair with congressional aide Callista Bisek began two years before Bill Clinton met Monica) or with the latest sighting of the lovebirds canoodling over pricey wine...

...entertaining falls flat here. It is difficult to distinguish the three group members except that they all fall off rhythm. As a result, the majority of the tracks on the album resemble each other too closely. Two tracks stood out, mainly because they resembled other artists' work. Anyone who heard Missy Elliott's summer release will be furious upon hearing C. O. G.'s futuristic "Intro." But if nothing else, C. O. G. has a good sense of what they should be. Indeed, they have most of what it takes to become successful musicians. They have the clothes and most...

...tracks like "Fuck Tha World" and "Watcha Wanna Do," there is little in the lyrics department worthy of the rewind button, although dwell on the bounce beat in the background and everything will be all right. A notable exception is "Drop It Like It's Hot," which you've heard if you've made it to any decent hip-hop clubs. It's obvious that even Lil Wayne knew he was better off as part of the flaming ones. Of the album's 17 tracks, 12 feature pairings with the rest of the Hot Boyz--Juvenile, B.G. and Turk...

...fully live as was earlier promised: the first vocals we heard, the "rock your body" refrain of "Dreamin'," were pre-recorded, and throughout the show all the vocals were lip-synced. Perhaps this was due to the nature of LRD's vocals, which rely heavily on vocoders and other effects to achieve their '80s sounds. Still, with Carmichael drumming up a storm and the Arthur Baker-esque electro synthesizer bassline kicking in, the crowd didn't seem to care, starting to bounce...
